In true AWD fashion, this is quite the chaotic episode, which starts with us being emo about lockdown and the incredibly stressful time it’s been, to a quit pivot to the recent COVID-Kardashian antics. We talk about the rumour that Katy Perry is Jonbenet Ramsay, the letter Grace sent Orlando Bloom, the letter Izzy send Hedley Thomas, Em Rata’s pregnancy announcement and Chrissy Teigen’s heartbreaking letter about pregnancy loss. Before it’s over to ADHD. Our talented friend Noelle wrote a viral piece for The Guardian this week detailing her ADHD diagnosis in her 30s, after years of trying to figure out why she couldn’t live like other humans do. Noelle writes about how ADHD masks itself in women and calls those who suffer from the same symptoms ‘the lost girls.’ We were lucky enough to get her on the pod to discuss how her condition was missed for so long, what the traits are that other women should look out for, and how her life has changed since her diagnosis.
